Once upon a time families could travel across America on Route 66 and make stops in small towns along the way for ice cream and burgers.
Today, that is no longer the case as the old roadway is either grown over or completely removed in certain areas.
However, in some small towns you still travel on Route 66 which was once the main artery through a bustling town. While the road may still be the main thoroughfare, the businesses along the way show that towns are no longer alive and well.
